  • Stop Dating Down: Raising Your Standards Starts Here
    Nov 6 2025

    This episode is a candid conversation about dating, self-worth, and the relationships that actually sustain us. Lo and his guest, author Rory Uphold, unpack the patterns that lead us to date down, ignore our intuition, and settle for less than we deserve. They talk about what it looks like to finally choose yourself — to raise your standards, set boundaries when needed, and step fully into your worth.

    A big part of that growth centers around friendship. Lo challenges the cultural obsession with romantic partnership and the idea that “low-maintenance” friendships are something to strive for. Instead, he highlights how meaningful, emotionally present friendships can provide a deeper sense of fulfillment and support than many romantic relationships ever will — and how our loneliness epidemic ties back to neglecting those bonds.

    This episode is a reminder that there isn’t one timeline or one definition of a full life. Whether you want marriage, kids, independence, or something entirely different, you are allowed to choose the life that fits you. It’s honest, warm, empowering — and a call to stop settling for crumbs in love and in community.

  • The Horrors of Dating: Surviving Narcissists, Red Flags & Emotional Vampires Part 1
    Oct 30 2025

    Lo sits down with writer, actress, and creator Rory Uphold for a refreshingly honest and wildly relatable conversation about the horrors of dating. The chemistry is instant as the two LA natives compared notes on narcissists, energy vampires, dating down, and the emotional jump scares we never saw coming.

    Rory shares how telling the truth about her toxic and confusing relationships didn’t break her, it actually healed her. And in doing so, she helped thousands of women feel less alone in their own romantic nightmares.

    But instead of leaving listeners in the darkness, this episode offers the opposite: hope. It’s vulnerable, funny, cathartic, and inspiring — especially for anyone who has ever questioned their worth, lost themselves in love, or is trying to believe in dating again.

    This is a true survival guide for the heart with humor, honesty, and a whole lot of “oh my god, same” moments.

  • How to Buy a Home When It Feels Impossible: The Homebuyer Playbook
    Oct 16 2025

    Lo is joined by real estate strategist Scott Harris, whose decades of experience and new boutique approach to brokerage reshapes how buying and selling should feel. Scott, having brokered nearly $2 billion in NYC properties and recently founding Magnetic, unpacks the biggest mistakes buyers make today, how to reframe beliefs like “I’ll never own a home,” and the four-step “Magnetic Method” (Activate → Align → Amplify → Attract) he uses to help clients land properties they truly love.

    Scott shares the most misunderstood step in his method and digs into why so many people get stuck there. He walks through a “mission impossible” transaction from his NYC career and reveals the pivot that made it happen. The conversation also explores how to balance your dream home wishlist with what’s realistic, and why sometimes a “starter home” is the smarter move. For women or people buying solo, he highlights unique negotiation, financing, and mindset hurdles and how to coach past them.

    You’ll also learn the invisible costs most buyers forget (maintenance, taxes, inflation, HOA, renovations), and discover what gives one buyer the edge in an offer war that isn’t just about money. In closing, Scott offers concrete steps listeners can take 6–12 months ahead of a purchase to set themselves up for success.

    Whether you feel like the market is stacked against you or you’re just curious how to bring more intention into your home search, this is a guide for confident, heart-forward real estate — not just transactions.
